RE: The tariff classification of women’s woven cotton trousers from India

Dear Mr. Atlas:

In your letter dated August 23,1999, you requested a classification ruling.

Style V40115 is a pair of women’s woven crinkle trousers of 100% cotton and features an elasticized waistband with a tunnel drawstring; inseam pockets; and hemmed leg openings. This garment is not considered too sheer for trousers.

The applicable subheading for the trousers will be 6204.62.4020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) which provides for women’s or girls’ trousers, bib and brace overalls,breeches and shorts: of cotton:other:other:other: trousers and breeches: women’s: other. The duty rate will be 17.2 percent ad valorem.

Style V40115 falls within textile category designation 348. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products from India are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa.

Your sample will be returned.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the U.S Customs Service Textile Status Report, an internal issuance of the U.S.Customs Service, which is available at the Customs Web Site at WWW.CUSTOMS. USTREAS.GOV. In addition, the designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.

Sincerely,

Paul Rimmer
Port Director
